Millimeter applications place heightened and unique requirements on circuit board laminates used as transmission lines or as antennas. Historically, applications were low volume. Materials were either adapted from standard or semi-standard products that were not ideal for millimeter wave or the materials that were military grade in nature. Recent growth of millimeter applications, such as ACC (adaptive cruise control) and side lane changing sensors for standard, high volume, affordably priced vehicles or commercial millimeter communication systems, has driven circuit board laminate fabricators to innovate materials. This paper explores advancements in millimeter wave circuit boards and the technical requirements placed on materials.

In the design of millimeter wave voltage control oscillators (VCOs), it is fairly important to establish the relationship between load impedance looking outward from active device and the impedance of varactor diode, so that load impedance can be related to the variation of varactor diode's impedance due to changing its dc bias voltage. In this paper, self impedance of radial line transformer (RLT) mounted on Gunn device has been calculated with mode matching methods at first. Numerical results of self impedance with respect to various circuit parameters are presented. General rules concerning self impedance by virtue of various structural parameters of the VCO have been deduced. Furthermore, an equivalent two-port network is presented in terms of impedance matrix, which is constructed by self impedance embedded on Gunn device and mutual impedance of two RLTs which has been calculated previously. The equivalent two-port network, which describes the relationship between load impedance and impedance of the varactor diode, is useful for the design and testing of the millimeter wave varactor VCO with two in-line RLTs.

This paper presents a novel V-slot DGS (defected ground structure), which provides a high-Q band rejection. Compared to conventional DGS, the V-slot DGS not only provides a high Q factor, but also has a simple shape and a steep slope of band edge. The resonance frequency, attenuation, bandwidth and Q factor are dependent on the structural parameters of the V-slot DGS. A single V-slot DGS can provide Q factor of more than 50. The band rejection filter with three cascaded V-slot DGS provides Q factor of 19.86 and rejects the frequency from 4.31 to 4.41 GHz with more than 30-dB suppression. Simulation results show that the proposed DGS filter offers significant improvement of the Q factor and size reduction when compared with the conventional DGS filters.

This paper presents a tunable dual-band microstrip after using step-impedance resonators (SIR) with wide stopband and low insertion loss. The dual-band Alter employs two SIR single-band Alters for the specifications of the two passbands respectively and using novel layout to make the two single-band Alter can be designed independently and achieve wide stopband. A prototype dual-band filter operated at 2.07 and 3.15 GHz is designed and fabricated. The upper stopband is extended over 10 GHz. Good agreement achieved between the numerical and measured results.

A simple and compact microstrip-fed ultra wideband (UWB) printed monopole antenna with band-notched performance is proposed in this paper. The antenna is composed of a square ring with a T-shaped strip, so that the antenna occupies about 7.68GHz bandwidth covering 3.08-10.76GHz with expected band rejection of 5.06GHz to 5.89GHz. A quasi- omnidirectional and quasi-symmetrical radiation pattern is also obtained. This kind of band-notched UWB antenna requires no external filters and thus greatly simplifies the system design of UWB wireless communication.

A technique combining the pseudospectral time- domain with the alternating-direction implicit method to solve three dimensional electromagnetic problems is investigated. The proposed method with a suitable well-posed perfectly matched layer is developed as an accurate and flexible tool for the simulation of electromagnetic wave propagation and scattering in conductive and inhomogeneous media. This approach allows for an accurate treatment of curved geometries with a high efficiency. Numerical results show an excellent agreement with experiments for the prototyping of a patch-fed dielectric rod antenna at V-band.

A 5.2-GHz quadrature LC voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) has been designed in a standard 0.18-mum CMOS process. Digitally controlled switch array is used in this design to achieve sufficient frequency tuning range and low phase noise. The oscillation frequency can be tuned from 5.03 GHz to 5.32 GHz through the 2-bit switch array. With the selection of an optimal on-chip inductor, the quadrature VCO achieves a single-sideband phase noise of -116 dBc/Hz at 1.0 MHz offset frequency consuming total 9.8 mA of current from a 1.5 V power supply.

Based on the electric field intensity and magnetic induction intensity of electric dipole & electric quadrupole, and the power density of magnetic dipole and electric quadruple in magnetic anisotropic medium, the radiation power of electric quadrupole in magnetic anisotropic medium can be achieved in anisotropic spherical coordinate system by spherical surface integration. By coordinate transformation, the radiation power of electric quadrupole in rectangular coordinate system are obtained. The theoretical results indicate that the radiation power is correlative with magnetic conductivity of the anisotropic medium. Our results offer a theoretical basis for measuring the radiation power of electric quadrupole in magnetic anisotropic medium.
